A nice WOTW re-make from the legendary 1898 H.G Wells novel of the same name. I've seen the 1953 film and apart from the obvious difference in visual effects the story is a lot more personal, which is closer to the book. Surprising performances from Cruise and Dokota Fanning, well cast for the parts they play. The cinemitography is well directed which is to be expected from Speilburg. Visual effects are spectacular with specific mention to the tripod design and behavioural characteristics.
